[solved] Problem with find

hi All,

I am using the command

find /home/mqm/check/ -mtime +1|wc -l 

to get a count of the files older than a day under the check directory. But instead of getting the count of the files under check directory I m getting a count including the check directory itself. Can someone please tell me where i have to include the parameters list (like -f file ) in order to get the correct count?

Thanks in advance
